Abstract: Techniques described herein take character glyphs as input and generate a text-on-a-path text object that includes the character glyphs arranged in a determined order along a path. For instance, a method described herein includes accessing character glyphs in input data. The method further includes determining an order for the character glyphs based on relative positions and orientations of the character glyphs in the input data. The method further includes generating a path for the character glyphs, based on the order, and associating the path with the character glyphs. Further, the method includes generating a text object that includes the set of character glyphs arranged in the order along the path.

Abstract: A request to obtain an identified content item is received. It is determined that the identified content item is stored in a plurality of locations. It is determined to obtain the identified content item from a first storage location storing a first serialized representation of a file system snapshot that includes the identified content item and a second storage location storing a second serialized representation of the file system snapshot that includes the identified content item based on available resources associated with the plurality of locations. The identified content item is extracted from the first serialized representation at the first storage location and from the second serialized representation at the second storage location including building a stubbed tree data structure using the first serialized representation and the second serialized representation. The extracted identified content item is provided using the stubbed tree data structure.

Abstract: The present invention provides stable pharmaceutical compositions, comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of testosterone or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable oil vehicle, and a stabilizing amount of benzyl alcohol, for example, about 1% to 3% weight/volume of benzyl alcohol. The present invention also provides a process for stabilizing testosterone-containing pharmaceutical compositions by ageing them at a temperature of about 20° C. to about 60° C. for at least 48 hours, e.g., prior to secondary packing and labeling. These compositions were stable over the shelf life of the product, without exhibiting crystal formation, even upon storing at temperatures of about 2° C. to about 8° C. Other aspects of the invention relate to methods for making such pharmaceutical compositions, as well as methods of using such pharmaceutical compositions for hormone replacement therapy, e.g.

Abstract: Digital image object anchor point techniques are described that increase user efficiency in interacting with a user interface to create digital images. This is achieved through use of anchor points by the digital image editing system that are defined with respect to an actual geometry of the object. Further, filtering and prioritization techniques are also leveraged to promote real world utility and efficiency of these techniques as a balance between having too many and two few anchor points.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for providing a correlated content organization in a content management system based upon a training set. In accordance with an embodiment, the systems and methods described herein can build a training set based upon observations of received inputs to determine patterns that are used often in content merges. Once a pattern is established, the systems and methods can provide indications of proposed merges based upon the training set and rules established therefrom that fit the same, or similar (e.g., within a defined variant) of the pattern. The system can then receive an indication of whether the suggestion is accepted or rejected, and such decision can be fed back into the learning system. This way the accuracy of the content merge improves over time.

Abstract: Metadata of a root node from a serialized representation of a file system metadata tree data structure is obtained. A representation of the root node that references a stub intermediate node that is a placeholder for an intermediate node stored in the serialized representation is created. A request to access data of a leaf node in a tree path including the intermediate node is received. In response to the request, metadata of the intermediate node is obtained from serialized metadata representation.

In some embodiments, a filter media and/or non-woven fiber web described herein has one or more properties that are both beneficial and easily obtainable by undulating the non-woven fiber web, such as by performing a creping procedure. This property may be characteristic of the procedure employed to form the undulations (e.g., creping and/or microcreping), or may be attainable via one or more methods of undulation.

Abstract: Filter media comprising non-woven fiber webs having one or more advantageous physical properties are generally described. In some embodiments, a filter media and/or non-woven fiber web described herein comprises a combination of fibers that results in enhanced physical properties. For example, the non-woven fiber web may comprise a combination of fiber types that is advantageous, such as a combination comprising fibrillated fibers, glass fibers, and/or binder fibers. In some cases, the filter media and/or non-woven fiber web comprising the combination of fibers may be formed into undulations (e.g., by a creping and/or microcreping process) to further enhance the physical properties of the filter media and/or non-woven fiber.

Abstract: In implementations of systems for simultaneously modifying multiple variable fonts, a computing device implements a modification system to identify a first range of values of a glyph attribute that are adjustable by changing values of a particular design axis of a first variable font that is common to the first variable font and a second variable font. The modification system identifies a second range of values of the glyph attribute that are adjustable by changing values of the particular design axis of the second variable font. An overlapping range of values of the glyph attribute is determined between the first range of values and the second range of values. The modification system generates an additional instance of the first variable font and an additional instance of the second variable font for display in a user interface based on the overlapping range of values of the glyph attribute.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for enabling in-place record content management. A records management agent within a content management system can communicate with a records management system in an asynchronous manner, such as in response to a request or prompt, or in combination with check-in of content into the content management system. The records management agent can fetch a records folders hierarchy from the records management system for use in selecting record policies to be applied to content. The records management agent can associate content with selected records folders within the records folders hierarchy, and can update metadata corresponding to the content. The records management agent can send the updated metadata to the records management system. In an embodiment, the records management agent can be provided as a reusable, pluggable component within an existing content management system.
